The time has come when Google allows us to discover which have been the most popular people, events and things of the year, or at least the ones we have searched the most on the internet, and as regards the devices of technology, we have come across an important surprise and that is that this year the Nintendo Switch has managed to even surpass iPad.
The Nintendo Switch can even with the iPad Pro 10.5
The success of the iPad Pro 10.5 has not been enough to surpass the popularity of the Nintendo Switch and she does it quite forcefully, in addition, since while she has placed in a spectacular third place, the tablet of Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), This year it hasn't even made the top 10 (we assume it won't be much lower either, but how much lower cannot be said).
Although the popularity of the Nintendo Switch It is something that we cannot say that it is exactly a surprise, it is still interesting news, marking the triumph of this device designed exclusively to play a fairly clear contrast with an evident trend in the field of tablets towards the field of productivity (of which the iPad Pro 10.5 is a clear exponent).
In any case, excellent news for Nintendo, which seems that it is finally managing to relocate in this new era of reign of mobile devices, because we have already seen that its games for iOS and Android are becoming, controversially or not, a success: Super Mario Run has been on all the most downloaded lists, Animal Crossing Pocket Camp seems to be on the way to surpass him and several of his games have been considered as the best of the year.
The battle between the iPhone and the Galaxy continues to be the star
With regard to smartphones and phablets, it is clear that the battle between the iPhone and the Galaxy is still the one that arouses the most interest, but in 2017 the balance has again tipped on the side of the apple, with the iPhone 8 in first place and iPhone X in the second (interesting in itself that the more conventional one has surpassed the star model, although it was probably influenced that the name of the other was revealed much later), while the Galaxy S8 has been relegated to fourth place, and Galaxy Note 8 (with less time also to compete) is left out.
It is also notable that Nokia has made a strong comeback and has placed two of its new devices in the top 10: the Nokia 6 and the iconic Nokia 3310. Chinese mobiles also continue to gain presence, although curiously without any reference to any of what is probably the most popular manufacturer, Xiaomi. It is true in this sense that OnePlus Part with advantage, with a single model on which all the attention is focused.
